How long does it take to discern a call to religious life, and what are some things to consider along the way?

In this Random Nun Clip we talk with Sr. Marcia Hall about what it's like to discern a vocation to religious life and some considerations along the way. Her advice about finding yourself in a position where you “don’t want to go back” but keep moving forward can apply to other life decisions, too.
